Plans for carputer, ideas wanted
Currently planning on building a carputer, thinking about putting a 7inch touchscreen in my glovebox so it can be locked out of sight. Id have my amp linked to it, store and play many songs videos ect. I would put a bigger screen somewhere else but there isnt much space anywhere.
Any cool hardware suggestions? or what i could control from the carputer?

At Maplin we had a little Intel Atom setup, Micro ITX it was sooo small! Get that with a 12v PSU and a nice little case and you'd be onto a winner!
I've got one half built from an old HP I-PC 40, Going to be awesome, Using Roadrunner front end and satnav with a USB dongle etc
